Erie SeaWolves sweep Altoona Curve

Hernan Perez collected three hits and the Erie SeaWolves' bullpen was outstanding today as Erie completed a three-game sweep of Altoona with a 2-1 win at Jerry Uht Park.

Matt Crouse made his third spot start of the season as Erie is down to four starting pitchers. Crouse threw six quality innings with the only blemish a solo home run to Andrew Lambo. Michael Morrison, Blaine Hardy and Justin Souza worked the final three innings to shut down the Curve (11-19).

Perez had three hits for Erie (17-11), including a double in the first inning and a two-out, two-run single in the second.

Tyler Collins finished 0-for-2 with two talks to end his home run streak at five games for the SeaWolves, who have won a season-high five games in a row.
